Former cram school instructor arrested for allegedly forcing his second-year middle school student to send sexual videos. The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating the possibility that he abused his position as a lecturer to get close to students and had them send him dozens of videos and images.

The suspect arrested was Takashi Kubo (21), a university student from Edogawa Ward, Tokyo. The university student has been in charge of students' classes since the summer of 2017, and it is believed that he gained their trust through repeated interactions.
